Change over of guests this morning (40 guests in the camp now) and I had a good lesson in patience with them. Impressively, the forecast materialized enough to make me want to run for my board...but I needed just a little patience. 8 foot @ 16 seconds...211 degrees...offshore by 10.
During my beachfront part of the tour, what I was watching while the new guests were hopefully listening to me was solid 6 to 8 foot bottom-end Money Trees pushing into top-end Speed Reef (like a tiger's fang). By the time I got into the lineup, beautiful offshores were grooming some legitimate powered swell.
It was tricky for me to figure out the surf today. Peaks were shifty, always seeming to be just beyond GO range. Still, there were some amazing waves unloading on the reef. Naturally, stories of barrels could be heard resonating off the jungle.
3 foot Tiger tracks and its neighbors were filling their riders with good-fun stoke. ITS FUN CITY DOWN THERE FOR SURE. 2 foot 20/20's had a few visitors with nothing close to a complaint. Kiki allegedly surfed 4 foot Chickens with no one out.
Early afternoon...not one person out front. Late afternoon...only 6 of us surfing proper Money Trees. Stories of barrels again. Not many long, lined-up waves, but enough to put value on a paddle out into that intense, late afternoon sun. Jarred wears a mask and glasses...Hmmmm??? (and speedo's as the new upgrade).
G-Land, the G-land Surf, and Bobby's G-Land Surf Camp is an altogether beautiful place on this planet. Let me know...somehow secretly of course...if you know of another place like here. I'll be ready to get on your space craft anytime cause there's not another reef...like this reef...ON THIS PLANET!
